End of Day 4!!!!

K8's did text today even though she thought she may not be able to from the bush. Wonders never cease. :)

"Hola Mama well i'm locked out of my room and my roommate is not answering. ugh. but it is a gorgeous nite. we took a boatride and tm is safari....nvm, i found my roommate. she wasn't even in the room. haha yes the boat was awesome and the plane was not bumpy went smoothly. so this is a beach resort right on the nile. so many pics. i ate. i miss you. we go back to entebbe tomorrow. i had a gr8 convo with my roommate. the real beach is back at entebbe. this beach is all bush. haha ..."

:)

Update from JoAnn, the leader:

They packed all their luggage in storage at Entebbe and took very little with them to the National Park at the northwest part of Uganda.

12 Sponsors flew MAF flight and the others flew the Eagle Air charter propeller plane.
Less than an hour flight to the National Forest.

Joseph drove the bus up from Kampala.

A safari vehicle took them to the safari lodge. En route they were greeted by giraffe and gazelles, birds, wart hog, water buffalo, and baboons!

Buffet lunch.

Boat ride... 3 hrs on the African Queen. Great view of the falls on the Nile. Hippos in the water, crocodiles, birds, wart hogs, and then elephants on the way back to the lodge.The sponsors said that this is just what they needed after being on an emotional overload.

Processed and spent inspirational time together.
Another phenominal buffet.

Free for personal time.

Another early morning tomorrow, leaving the National Park, visiting another Student Center, and then off to fly back to Entebbe.

Thank you for continued prayers!

  1. I know we, K8's family, are all jealous of K8's experience but after this update, Zack and John are beyond jealous. :)

  2. Sounds like K8 is having a great time - I'm sooo jealous also! Can't wait to hear about her trip and the work the group has done - God is certainly leading them!
